If fasting is observed in a healthy way it will help in significant improvement of our overall health. Apparently, most people turn Iftar (breaking the fast) into a grand feast and there will be a lot of greasy and fried dishes. However, my body cannot handle too much fried and greasy food, in fact it&#8217;s very hard for me to even eat after breaking the fast. So, I decided to pamper my body with healthy dishes this time: fresh juices, fruits, baked dishes etc.<\/p>\n<p>This chicken stuffed flat bread or chapati is in deed a healthy dish. Cooked chicken combined with onion and spices is stuffed into wheat dough, rolled into a flat bread and cooked on a tawa or pan. This is a rather dry flat bread, it can be served with raita (yogurt and veggies) or along with a simple curry.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15145\" alt=\"chicken stuffed chapati\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/chicken-stuffed-chapati1.jpg\" width=\"475\" height=\"317\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/chicken-stuffed-chapati1.jpg 475w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/chicken-stuffed-chapati1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/chicken-stuffed-chapati1-84x55.jpg 84w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 475px) 100vw, 475px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Preparation Pictures<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Chicken Masala<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15146\" alt=\"cooked chicken masala\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/cooked-chicken-masala.jpg\" width=\"475\" height=\"317\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/cooked-chicken-masala.jpg 475w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/cooked-chicken-masala-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/cooked-chicken-masala-84x55.jpg 84w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 475px) 100vw, 475px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong> Chicken masala placed on the dough<\/strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15147\" alt=\"stuffing with chicken\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/stuffing-with-chicken.jpg\" width=\"475\" height=\"317\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/stuffing-with-chicken.jpg 475w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/stuffing-with-chicken-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/stuffing-with-chicken-84x55.jpg 84w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 475px) 100vw, 475px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong> Rolling the dough<\/strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15148\" alt=\"rolling chicken stuffed dough\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/rolling-chicken-stuffed-dough.jpg\" width=\"475\" height=\"317\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/rolling-chicken-stuffed-dough.jpg 475w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/rolling-chicken-stuffed-dough-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/rolling-chicken-stuffed-dough-84x55.jpg 84w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 475px) 100vw, 475px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong> Cooking the chicken stuffed chapati<\/strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15149\" alt=\"cooking chicken stuffed chapati\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/cooking-chicken-stuffed-chapati.jpg\" width=\"475\" height=\"317\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/cooking-chicken-stuffed-chapati.jpg 475w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/cooking-chicken-stuffed-chapati-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/cooking-chicken-stuffed-chapati-84x55.jpg 84w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 475px) 100vw, 475px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"easyrecipe\">\t<link itemprop=\"image\" href=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/chicken-stuffed-chapati.jpg\" \/>\n<div class=\"item ERName\">Chicken Stuffed Chapati &#8211;
